Australia proved too hot to handle for the West Indies, winning all 8 matches on their tour of the Caribbean. They first dominated the Test series 3-0, and then outclassed the hosts in the T20Is, completing a commanding 5-0 sweep to lift the silverware.
Thatβs all from our coverage of this historic tour, where Australia became the first full member nation to sweep a 5-match T20I series.
For now, this is Ajay Pal Singh, signing off on behalf of my colleagues Saptak Sanyal and Yogesh Kumar. Goodbye and take care!!!

Mitchell Marsh (Australia Captain): "Yeah, absolutely. I didn't expect 5-0 at the start of the series, but we played some great cricket throughout.
Look, it is something we spoke about after the fourth game. No Australian team has done it, so I guess a group coming together, a lot of us haven't played together. With some young guys coming in. Something we can be really proud of. Like I said, just across the board over the five games, we have played good cricket.
(Positives from the series) We have quite a bit of flexibility, we are fluid and the guys have all come in and taken that opportunity.
The way T20 is going, teams just need to keep going. You saw it today with Tim David and the way he played that innings. Looks exciting, long may it continue.
We have huge amount of respect for the West Indies. They are a very good side. You look at their side in each of the 5 games and it can be a bit daunting. We just want to focus on our execution and focus on the challenge at hand."
Shai Hope (West Indies Captain): "I don't think we put together a proper batting display. We either started well and finished poorly or the other way around. When you play against a quality opposition like Australia, you need to put things together. As a batting group we didn't give ourselves the best chance and that's where we fell short.
We understood the struggle of bowling spin here at this venue. He is a quality bowler and did the job for us. We were always one step behind the eight ball, but have to commend the bowling effort. Just didn't happen for us today.
In the Caribbean, chasing is always better due to the dew and wind factor. But that's not something I can control. We have some clarity in the bowling unit, we executed better. We'll put this behind us and look ahead to the Pakistan series."
Cameron Green (POTS): "Yeah, I think the wickets were certainly better. A lot of guys have had a good series. Inglis batted well and Tim David has been outstanding for us, credit to the whole team.
I think we will have to wait and see. 5 guys can bat at 4. Good opportunity this series, had a bit of time out which is nice.
Hopefully, I am couple of months away. We got about half the team that is all-rounders. That's the beauty of what we are trying to build here. A lot of depth. If it is turning we got Maxwell and Connolly. If the wicket is offering a bit of seam, we got hopefully Mitch Marsh. Myself and Aaron Hardie, good team we are building.
I am trying to work it out. I think I had good partnerships around me. Mitch Owen the other day, good series overall.
It is massive. You want to win every game. Consistency is important."

Ben Dwarshuis (POTM): "Yeah, it was probably a bit of slower wicket than the previous games. Just trying to use what we could, trying to hit the wicket hard and bowl some slower ones as well.
Yeah, I mean a lot of thinking goes in. Guys will look to target you and it is about not to let them hit those areas. It is all about back your strengths and make them hit where they don't want to hit.
Yeah, it was a challenge. Batter friendly tracks and two ultra aggressive batting lineups. There were loads of runs scored. A nice challenge and loved my time here.
Yeah, amazing to be a part of the squad that has done that. Some happy memories that I will look back for the rest of my life.
I grew up watching a lot of Mitchell Johnson and Mitchell Starc so having Starcy here helped me."
